Shrines, Temples, and Stations

I know a number of you have admired the Moore Action Figure Display Base I’ve used to display some figures of my collection. Unfortunately, the thing is so rare as to be almost legendary.

However, I recently came across something that may serve in a pinch. It ain’t cheap, but your figures–be they 3 ¾”, 6″ or 12″–will look awesome on it.

It’s the Shrine of Dagon 12″ “figure environment” from Sideshow.

It’s designed for 12″ figures, but the nature of the design should look good with pretty much any sort of figure. After all, it’s the Shrine of Dagon, and we’re clearly talking H.P. Lovecraft’s Dagon and not the original Levantine deity, so the Cyclopean scale of the base compared to smaller figures is altogether fitting.

I can already see the four Ghostbusters standing on the bottom look up at Gozer, who’s flanked by two Terror Dogs; Hellboy taking on some fish-like beast; or Mer-Man holding court.

Or, y’know, a giant apple.

If you think your figures are up for it, you can order one here.

But wait! There’s more. If you prefer an Egyptian theme, there’s the Temple of Anubis. While it’s not quite as symmetrical as the Shrine of Dagon, it makes up for it by having an awesome statue. I imagine Dr. Fate would look right at home here.

Finally, if you’re looking for a more science fiction-style environment, there’s Reactor Station Alpha, which is just begging to show off your Star Wars or Halo figures, or perhaps serve as home base to the New Gods.
